Hosts Lowell Francis and Marc Majcher cover the extended history of the game and how it desperately raced to keep itself contemporary. We talk about what Twilight 2000 is, where it fits in gaming history, why there used to be a \"Men's Adventure\" section in bookstores, and our general thoughts about the game.\nReferences\nTwilight 2000 on Wikipedia\nTwilight 2000 on RPG Geek\nGrognardia on Twilight 2000, Merc 2000\nRPGNet Review of Twilight 2013 \nDesigners & Dragons Volume 1 The 1970s\nFor other shows like this, check out Roll for Origin: Supers TTRPG History.\nMarc Majcher is an award-winning game designer, performer, educator, director, woodworker, writer, and all-around goblin-man recently relocated from Austin, Texas to East Lansing, Michigan.
